Dan Mangan Release New Album ‘Oh Fortune’ also download Free Track Post War Blues
by admin on Oct.12, 2011, under Rock Music News
Dan Mangan new album Oh Fortune, also joins the City Slang label.
Already a highly regarded Polaris Prize nominee in his home land, his mark on the UK thus far has been fleeting but impressively well received and the release of this new record a statement of intent. Ambitious and textured, ‘Oh Fortune’ sees Mangan pull away from the world of alt-folk, observational anthems that its predecessor ‘Nice, Nice, Very Nice’ encapsulated, allowing the music to swell up into waves of full orchestration and with the help of free-jazz experimentalists and Seattle’s Eyvind Kangarrangements developed into luscious walls of sound, sweeping and flowing throughout the album.‘Post War Blues’ is the perfect introduction to the album, and proves that Mangan has much more to give than ‘Nice, Nice, Very Nice’ suggested.
“Hugely impressive… An album of songs with wry, razor-sharp, self-observational lyrics and arrangements that are deceptively complex. ****” – The Times

The Sword Announce UK Tour and Release Video of Night City
by Rock Feeder on Apr.01, 2011, under Rock Music News, video
The Sword Release New Single and Video Night City plus UK Tour
The third and final installment of the Warp Riders Trilogy has been released today by Texan metal warriors The Sword. ‘Night City’ was directed by Artificial Army and features Esteban Powell, best known for his role as Carl in the classic Dazed and Confused film.
The band are currently looking forward to touring the UK in May with the formidable skills of notorious intergalactic bounty drummer, Kevin Fender who joined the band last October when former drummer Trivett Wingo left the band for personal reasons. With Kevin now on board, The Sword will be touring the amazing Warp Riders album that was released in 2010 on Kemado Records. It’s The Sword’s first concept album, a science fiction maelstrom put to the storming, relentless riffage and pounding rhythms upon which the band has staked its reputation. It’s also their most flat-out, supercharged, adrenaline-pumping work yet, a chrome-plated war machine that lords over the blackened sky.
Enjoy Night City and see The Sword live at the following UK dates:
Sun 8-May-11 ENGLAND SOUTHAMPTON JOINERS
Mon 9-May-11 ENGLAND BIRMINGHAM ACADEMY 3
Tue 10-May-11 SCOTLAND GLASGOW CATHOUSE
Wed 11-May-11 ENGLAND MANCHESTER ACADEMY 3
Thu 12-May-11 ENGLAND LONDON GARAGE
